We Are Not The Dead

This is photojournalism at its absolute best. Raw portraits of soldiers before, during, and after their deployments to Iraq. Powerful enough on their own, but when combined with the near-forgotten art of real journalism – recording the thoughts of the subjects and letting them stand on their own – this moves into the realm of truly outstanding. Everyone who tries to understand anything about the Afghan conflict should start with this and look long and hard at the eyes in the “after” photos.

Bloody brilliant.
